1. High strength support brackets. Slant/Fin’s heavy gauge steelsupport bracket is shaped by a series of progressive die strikes which multiply the strength of the metal alone. The bracket becomes a powerful “spine” for the entire unit, holding cover, element and damper vane securely in place. Brackets can’t pop out of place, yet may be slid laterally for installation con-venience. Support wedge at top of bracket reinforces top panel against damage. Half-moon cutout provides room for return line.

2. Super-strong enclosure won’t go out of shape under rough abuse or even when used as a step by children. The super strong Slant/Fin enclosure holds its shape through installation and years of use. Prime, cold-rolled, rephospho- rized, heavy-gauge, galvanized steel is formed into rigid front panel and one-piece bottom, back and top panel. Channels formed along top and bottom edge of front panel add extra structural strength. 3. Rust resistant galvanized steel is

standard on all Fine/Line 30 base-board. The special alloys and rust inhibitor finish used in making Fine/Line 30 ensure that the enclo-sures will maintain their like-new beauty, even in high moisture areas such as bathrooms, basements and laundry rooms. No other resi-dential baseboard offers this long lasting protection.

4. Room control damper helps con-

trol individual room temperature. Slant/Fin’s unique pivot and damper mounting assembly pro-vide the straightest, most respon-sive damper available. Factory assembled. Holds any setting from fully open to fully closed or any set-ting in-between. Ordinary base-board dampers may leave large spaces even when closed. The Slant/Fin damper, when closed, effectively reduces convection air flow.

5. High performance heating ele-ment. Maximum heat output. Fins won’t loosen. Double bent aluminum fins pack extra heating surface in a slimmer enclosure. Interlocking tongue-and-groove collars permanently bond fins to each other and to the tubing. Stops “pings and clicks”. Tight bond assures maximum heat-transfer efficiency. End fins are of plated steel for extra ruggedness.

6. No-noise expansion cradles. Self-adjusting velvet smooth

expansion cradles eliminate noisy metal-to-metal contact with bracket and enclosure. Cradle slides silent-ly over support bracket as heating element expands and contracts.

Wall streakage eliminated. Top panel and damper form a shield to keep dust from settling into baseboard interior, and to deflect heated air away from the wall, into the room. Back panel has no holes or slits to leak air behind the back of the baseboard causing wall streakage.

Engineered for Excellence.

BOILERS & BASEBOARD

Since 1949

Zip-Strip carton zips open in seconds. Baseboard comes out of the carton fully assembled, ready to nail. No jigsaw puzzle of parts. No cutting to fit.

Heating contractor: Complete your baseboard installations with less effort and less time.Fine/Line 30 is designed for fast, simple, economical installation from the minute you zip open the first carton to the second you snap on the last accessory. You make the best looking, most cost-effective baseboard installation possible. Without cutting corners. Without unexpected labor costs. Take advantage of these Slant/Fin features for a better installation. Slant/Fin's selection of pre-cut lengths and telescopic accessories lets you fit "standard" Slant/Fin products to virtually any field condition, for easy, neat wall to wall fit without cutting. With the 31⁄2' baseboard length, you can figure your runs in half-foot increments. No one offers greater selection, versatility and quality for baseboard acces-sories than Slant/Fin. Telescoping acces-sories make up the odd inches. 7" and 14" filler sleeves also fill gaps up to a foot.

Drawn Steel End Caps have elegant rounded edges (instead of welded seams) to give your installation a more distinctive look. Options on sizes and style will suit any installation. All of our acces-sories have a more styled & finished look if compared to other brands. With the wide range of sizes of fillers and baseboard, there is never a need to cut the baseboard on the job! Shown is the Solid 4” hinged End Cap (Solid & Slotted)

Quality enamel finish perfectly matches the baseboard color to give a harmonious look to your finished job. Every accessory has thick, even paint coverage. No streaks. No splotches. Even the inside is thoroughly protected with paint for years of rust-free beauty. Full back panel on end caps, wall trim etc.

Snap-on, hinged accessories swing up for easy access to air vents and heating element or for removal of the front panel— even when wall material covers the accessory top. Precision piano hinges last for years.

Slant/Fin baseboard can be installed flush to the wall or recessed for a more concealed look.

Turn corners easily. It’s easy to shape your own inside corner when the standard 90˚ or 135˚ corners won’t fit. Our field adaptable inside corner is easily shaped on the job for a perfect fit at bay windows or any other place with unusually angled corners.

2" splice plate included free with lengths 5’ and longer, provides continuity between close fitting baseboard sections. (Not available in Decorator Series)

Riser hole template, included free in every baseboard package, lets you quickly mark the correct location for floor riser holes or wall holes for straight-through runs. Recommended hole diameter allows room for lateral

Flared element tube — facilitates joining of baseboard sections. Right end of each element tube is flared to accept tubing from adjacent baseboard or 3⁄4" system tubing.

Vented return bend. Special 180˚ bend aligns return line perfectly with half-moon cutouts in support brackets. A 1⁄8" threaded tapping permits easy installation of air vent, can also serve as a drain

Wire hangers — provide support for bare tube in dummy enclosures or for return tubing above heating element.

Riser rings — provide a neat, clean, sanitary seal where risers come up through floor. Wax loaded neoprene acts to cushion expansion squeaks and vibration noises. Split collar allows easy installlation at any time, even after connections are made.

Fast/Flex connectors can be hand formed around obstructions, go through tight spots and make up for any misalignment between baseboard and piping. Here, one Fast/Flex replaces three elbows and three lengths of tubing, eliminating much measuring and fitting. (See Pub. No. EC-FF-10 for additional data.)
